Eyes on Walls are set to drop an exclusive, limited edition print of Hikari's painting "Neo Raigou-zu" this Friday! The original painting has been faithfully reproduced as a beautiful giclee limited edition of 50, signed and numbered with a certificate of authenticity.

In Buddhism, a raigo (meaning "welcoming approach") is an appearance of Amida Buddha on a purple cloud at the time of one's death. In Hikari's version, a magical girl (who represents the "new god of our era" in her artwork) takes the position of Buddha and a rock band follows her. They are what she calls the "raigou-zu of the modern era".
